The article also alleges the <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\" >problem dates back years<\/a>, including a prior Justice Department investigation where many aggravated assault and other cases were misclassified, and it mentions the chief of police announcing resignation around that time while denying it was linked to the probe. The piece then argues that if these officials had done thier jobs, Trump\u2019s decision to send in the Guard would have been easier to frame-and it includes commentary criticizing Democratic-run cities and citing U.S. News rankings of \u201cmost dangerous\u201d places.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><br \/>\n<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC \"-\/\/W3C\/\/DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional\/\/EN\" \"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/TR\/REC-html40\/loose.dtd\"><br \/>\n<?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><html><body><\/p>\n<section> \t\t\t\t<script>console.log(\"ad slot (AC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC3)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC4)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>We were told the National Guard were not needed, and that Washington, D.C., is a perfectly safe place to live and work.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPresident Donald Trump is overstepping and tyrannically abusing his executive authority!
